Saturday night time may need been the least anxious Bristol Night time Race of Joey Logano’s profession, and he had a buddy on pit street afterward. Along with his ticket to the Spherical of 12 punched and Hardy becoming a member of him on pit street, the NASCAR star had fun in Tennessee.
Regardless of ending P28, Joey Logano was in a position to smile after final night time’s race. That win in Atlanta got here in helpful. He wouldn’t have been in nice place if this Spherical of 16 was solely primarily based on Watkins Glen and Bristol.
When you have got a star like Hardy ready for you on pit street, it helps make the dangerous end not appear so dangerous. Seems like everyone was having a very good time.
Joey Logano has gained at Bristol previously. It’s a observe that he can often depend on for a stable end. At the least within the pre-Subsequent Gen period. For the reason that new automotive was launched, Logano has finishes of P27, P34, P22, and P28.
Nicely, it’s not so dangerous when there isn’t any likelihood of being eradicated. Nonetheless, it’s attention-grabbing to see Logano battle at Bristol a lot within the new automotive. Passing is nearly inconceivable with out a tire that shreds in 50 laps, so that might have rather a lot to do with it.
Crew Penske ended up with all three of their drivers advancing to the following spherical. Harrison Burton of Wooden Brothers Racing, who has an alliance with Penske, didn’t advance.
Joey Logano, Crew Penske teammates advance
Exterior of Joey Logano’s win at Atlanta, Crew Penske saved a low profile. Ryan Blaney has not had an amazing begin to the playoffs due to his DNF at The Glen. However his performances at Atlanta and Bristol greater than made up for it.
Austin Cindric was maybe probably the most spectacular of all. At the least primarily based on expectations for every particular person driver. Cindric had back-to-back top-10s to open the playoffs. He was P13 at Bristol. He comfortably made the Spherical of 12.
Logano was the one driver of the three to not file two top-10s within the first spherical. Once more, that win was main. It meant that the remainder of the spherical didn’t actually matter a lot. I gained’t be shocked if Logano comes out very well-prepared for Kansas. One other win and he’s within the Spherical of 8. At that time, you may style the Championship 4.
Crew Penske has gained back-to-back championships with Joey Logano and Ryan Blaney. Are they going to win one other for the third straight yr?
